The product packing, is an essential process for preserving the product but it also emits higher percentages of green house gases to the atmosphere, while decomposing it. Therefore, it leads to a new science named ‘Green packing’, which deals with the process of identifying Eco-compatible materials for packing. This article aims at detecting: the high performing packing factor for green house gas emission and also to develop an optimized values for packing enterprises to mitigate the emission. The results achieved shows that packing material selection has a huge influence on green house gas emission.
